bamnutsak Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 I think you'll need a stand-alone Android-client VPN app. I think that free VPN is only enabled when using the Opera browser Android app. So you could use the bank's website access, while the VPN is enabled within Opera. Can you share your need to use a VPN? The app's use is limited to a specific country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelli Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 You can't. You can get a soft version of VPN free with 1111. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banks have inbuilt security. Better than any normal app. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS24 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 One of my banks will not even let me run the app with Android Developer options turned on since the last update. Nice move on their behalf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice move on their behalf. Ditto. Mildly annoying but if that's what they want what can we do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Banking Apps are standalone, don't use installed browsers. I use a free vpn sometimes, I'm thinking of buying one such as nordvpn only for banking purposes in case they are searching for people abroad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
